摘要
En 中文
Photon pairs generated by spontaneous parametric down -conversion are essential for optical quantum information processing, in which the quality of biphoton states is crucial for the performance. To engineer the biphoton wave func-tion (BWF) on-chip, the pump envelope function and the phase matching function are commonly adjusted, while the modal field overlap has been considered as a constant in the frequency range of interest. In this work, by using modal coupling in a system of coupled waveguides, we explore the modal field overlap as a new degree of freedom for biphoton engineering. We provide design examples for on-chip gener-ations of polarization entangled photons and heralded single photons. This strategy can be applied to waveguides of dif-ferent materials and structures, offering new possibilities for photonic quantum state engineering. (c) 2022 Optica Publish-ing Group
